Frommer's Highly Recommended

You'll never forget you are in New York when you stay at the Affinia Manhattan. From the large lobby -- sort of a mini-version of the Waldorf=Astoria's, where a Grand Central Station-like information booth in its center features a series of televisions with video images of New York landmarks. Furthering the New York theme, "New York Experience" kits are available, free of charge. Though the New York theme is fun, all you really need to do is look out your window, where you just might see the Empire State Building, and you'll know very well what city you are in. All rooms are suites with full kitchens. The room decor here is old-school -- no edgy furniture or amenities, but there is plenty of space. Bathrooms are small by comparison but include New York details such as black-and-white tiled floors.
